What is hot pot?

Hot pot is a popular cooking method and dining experience that originates from East Asia, particularly China. It involves a simmering pot of broth placed at the center of the dining table, often kept hot by a portable burner. Diners add and cook a variety of raw ingredients in the broth, which can include thinly sliced meats, seafood, vegetables, noodles, tofu, and dumplings.

The broth can vary in flavor, ranging from mild to very spicy, here at Shikku we have many different types of house-made broths that you can use to flavor your dining experience.
